    The image represent glucose uptake in the brain measured by positron emission tomography in middle-aged individuals with low (top) or high (bottom) sustained cardiovascular risk over 5 years. The colors represent cerebral glucose consumption, with red indicating higher consumption and blue lower consumption

    The Lancet Healthy Longevity: Early action to control cardiovascular risk factors preserves brain metabolism

    A study published in The Lancet Healthy Longevity shows that brain metabolism, detected with advanced imaging techniques, declines more sharply in middle-aged people with a sustained high cardiovascular risk over 5 years
    Imagen obtenida por microscopía confocal en la que se observa el borde de la cicatriz glial producida tras el infarto cerebral, lo cual dificulta la posterior regeneración de la zona. Este evento es atenuado en gran medida a través del tratamiento con metoprolol intravenoso pre-reperfusión.

    The BrightFocus Foundation grants an Alzheimer’s Disease Research Standard Award to a CNIC project

    The project will examine long-term changes in plasma biomarkers of neuronal injury, neuroinflammation, and Alzheimer's disease in participants in the PESA-CNIC-SANTANDER study who have undergone imaging studies to map brain metabolism. The goal of the project is to determine how cardiovascular risk factors during midlife impact brain function
